[Bug 842420] Re: package firefox 3.6.20+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.10.04.1 failed to install/upgrade: malsukcesis legi staton (dereference) de ekzistanta symlink '/usr/bin/abrowser': Permission denied

[KIAaze]

Ok, symlink '/usr/bin/abrowser' points to /usr/bin/firefox which points
to my own startup script.

So fixed with:
sudo mv /usr/bin/firefox{,.custom}
sudo mv /usr/bin/firefox.original /usr/bin/firefox

Also set the default browsers to chromium with:
sudo update-alternatives --config x-www-browser
sudo update-alternatives --config gnome-www-browser
to avoid starting the old firefox version inadvertently (which always causes problems).

I will also have to set the BROWSER variable in .bashrc correctly.

I might uninstall the firefox package completely or use ubuntuzilla
instead.
